not really a breakage but it might worth to know it. during update you'll get a warning that cups-pdf will get removed. you can ignore this message since cups-pdf is a dummy package. just make sure that you have "printer-driver-cups-pdf" installed.

Code: Select all

Package: cups-pdf
Version: 2.6.1-22
State: not installed (configuration files remain)
Priority: extra
Section: oldlibs
Maintainer: Debian CUPS Maintainers <debian-printing@lists.debian.org>
Architecture: amd64
Uncompressed Size: 10.2 k
Depends: printer-driver-cups-pdf (= 2.6.1-22)
PreDepends: dpkg (>= 1.17.13)
Provided by: printer-driver-cups-pdf (3.0.1-4)
Description: PDF writer backend for CUPS (dummy transitional package)
 This dummy package is provided to support the transition from cups-pdf to
 printer-driver-cups-pdf and should be removed afterwards.
Homepage: http://www.cups-pdf.de

[grizzler]

Similarly, gtkhash-common is no longer required. If you use gtkhash (for computing checksums), a file browser dependent extension is used: caja-gtkhash, nautilus-gtkhash, nemo-gtkhash or thunar-gtkhash.

[kurotsugi]

today apt-listchanges shows this

Code: Select all

apt-listchanges: News
---------------------

apt (1.5~beta1) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ New HTTPS method ]
  The default http method now supports HTTPS itself, including encrypted proxies
  and connecting to HTTPS sites via HTTPS proxies; and the apt-transport-https
  package only provides a "curl+https" method now as a fallback, but will be
  removed shortly. If TLS support is unwanted, it can be disabled overall by
  setting the option Acquire::AllowTLS to "false".

  As for backwards compatibility, the options IssuerCert and SslForceVersion
  are not supported anymore, and any specified certificate files must in the
  PEM format (curl might have allowed DER files as well).

  [ Changes to unauthenticated repositories ]
  The security exception for apt-get to only raise warnings if it encounters
  unauthenticated repositories in the "update" command is gone now, so that it
  will raise errors just like apt and all other apt-based front-ends do since
  at least apt version 1.3.

  It is possible (but STRONGLY ADVISED AGAINST) to revert to the previous
  behaviour of apt-get by setting the option
    Binary::apt-get::Acquire::AllowInsecureRepositories "true";
  See apt-secure(8) manpage for configuration details.

  [ Release Info Changes ]
  If values like Origin, Label, and Codename change in a Release file,
  update fails, or asks a user (if interactive). Various
  --allow-releaseinfo-change are provided for non-interactive use.

AFAIK user doesn't need to do anything but repo/distro maintainer should aware of it.

[kurotsugi]

new kernel has arrived. well...4.11 series actually have been part of the repo for a while but this time they make it as the default kernel. I haven't noticed anything wrong yet but my dmesg throw bunch of errors

Code: Select all

[    0.372310] ACPI Error: Needed type [Reference], found [Integer] ffff9fccf7533900 (20170119/exresop-103)
[    0.372324] ACPI Exception: AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE, While resolving operands for [OpcodeName unavailable] (20170119/dswexec-461)
[    0.372335] ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed [\_PR.CPU0._PDC] (Node ffff9fcd8002cf00), AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE (20170119/psparse-543)
[    7.840450] ip_local_port_range: prefer different parity for start/end values.

AFAIK it's related with the mainboard's firmware so we can safely ignore it. I'll try to dig it later.

[san-claudio]

Avec l'installation du nouveau noyau 4.11.0-1 :

Code: Select all

fortunately that message usually harmless. the firmware usually arrive later.

[Arjen Balfoort]

I've uploaded the source for solydx-system-adjustments-10 and solydk-system-adjustments-10 to Github: https://github.com/SolydXK

[san-claudio]

@Schoelje Comment il faut interpréter cette information ???

Sur la mise à jour du 14 juillet :

Code: Select all

Préparation du dépaquetage de .../solydx-system-adjustments-9_2.8.6_all.deb ...
Dépaquetage de solydx-system-adjustments-9 (2.8.6) sur (2.8.2) ...

dpkg-query: erreur: erreur lors de l'écriture de « <sortie standard> »: Relais brisé (pipe)

[grizzler]

FIles from the solydx-system-adjustments-9 package. However, you should really be using the solydx-system-adjustments-10 package now. This will 'upgrade' your EE to buster (replacing that package is really all that my solydfixes script does for an EE...).

If installing solydx-system-adjustments-10 produces errors from solydx-system-adjustments-9 (about those three files), manually remove them (the ones without 'divert' in the name) and try again. If necessary, run sudo dpkg -a --configure

[san-claudio]

J'ai téléchargé le package ' solydx-system-adjustments-10'. Je l'ai extrait et il y a plusieurs dossiers dans 'solydx-system-adjustments-10-master'.
Mais je ne vois pas comment l'éxécuter ce package avec Git pourriez-vous me donner la marche à suivre si cela est possible et pas trop laborieux vu qu'il y a une version installée.
san-claudio@solydxk ~ $ git --version
git version 2.13.2
Si la manoeuvre est trop délicate et pas assez succincte pour être appliquée et que je ne puisse l'appréhender j'attendrais l'iso final et ferait une nouvelle installation tant que je tourne avec celle-ci sans problème.

[grizzler]

Not from git. If your sources.list has a solydxk-ee line, you can simply install it with apt.

[san-claudio]

Ma source.list native :

Code: Select all

deb http://repository.solydxk.com solydxk-ee main upstream import
deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org testing/updates main contrib non-free

Y a-t-il un changement à apporter ???
Sur une grosse mise à jour du 16 juillet rien à signaler.

[grizzler]

No, that sources.list looks fine*) for an EE. Just do an apt install solydx-system-adjustments-10

If you see any errors about those three files that were mentioned earlier during/after removal of solydx-system-adjustments-9 (which should happen automatically when you install -10), just remove them and run apt install -f or sudo dpkg -a --configure

_______________________________
*) Stricktly speaking, httpredir.debian.org should be replaced with deb.debian.org, but it currently redirects to that. Change it at your convenience.

[san-claudio]

OK merci pour 'apt install solydx-system-adjustments-10' quelques retours à vous de juger :

Code: Select all

dpkg-divert: erreur: le renommage implique l'écrasement de « /usr/share/xfce4/backdrops/xfce/xfce-teal.jpg » avec
  un fichier différent « /usr/share/xfce4/backdrops/xfce/xfce-teal.jpg.divert », ce n'est pas autorisé
dpkg: erreur de traitement du paquet solydx-system-adjustments-9 (--remove) :
 le sous-processus script pre-removal installé a retourné une erreur de sortie d'état 2
Des erreurs ont été rencontrées pendant l'exécution :
 solydx-system-adjustments-9
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Rien n'a été changé dans la source.list native pour l'instant.

[grizzler]

Right, I misread the text file, so I removed my previous message.

There is still an error, but only about one file. That file needs to go too. After that, removing -9 and actually installing -10 should work (it did here anyway).

[san-claudio]

J'ai fait un remove de -9 et une install de -10 de nouveau, quelques retours.

[kurotsugi]

either removing that package or using "force" option on apt should work. though, the first is "cleaner" and easier to maintain. manually fix the file as grizzler pointed should works too. I'd say it's the best method to do it.
